Wild Wellness at Gleneagles
The Gleneagles Hotel
Untouched wilderness and holistic health come together for a sensational getaway at Gleneagles in Perthshire, Scotland. Experience hill walking, foraging, forest bathing and fishing with the estate’s sweeping 850-acre grounds and beyond.
The programme creates a modern spin on the practice of mindfulness. The powers of nature can significantly improve mental and physical health, therefore this memorable 2-night retreat invites you to connect with the natural rhythm of Scottish wilderness and harness the healing power of nature.
The retreat uses learnings from Shinto and western practices, encouraging moments of quiet contemplation in between insightful classes and experiences.
Day 1: Pranayama, waterfall bathing and stargazing
The first day is dedicated to ‘Breathing in the Wilderness’ with pranayama breathing techniques to revitalise a tired body. Set in the Glorious Playground with a resident yoga teacher, learn the foundations of primal breathing control. Adopt this skill throughout the programme and beyond, facilitated by your teacher.
An immersive Nature Walk embraces the sounds of nature as you track native wildlife and embrace the ancient Japanese ritual of waterfall bathing. The cold water purifies the mind, body and soul, increasing the white blood cells which boosts the immune system. Venture out with your guide after dinner for an evening of stargazing under a clear sky.
Day 2: Mindful mountain hike to Ben Vorlich and rewarding spa treatments
Your morning begins with mindfulnesss in the mountains. After a fueling breakfast, you will be out on a full day expedition to the summit of Ben Vorlich.
